on by a H\aralsoh, county man and
a posse wWent ocul @il rathered

Kirk was convictéd @d got o
six month’s slide Of Wederal justice
and was taken to jail where le
’ pined fortyfive days on peas and
hones and other prison fare. At the
expiration of fortyfive days Kirk
swore to reform and was let out on
a suspended sentence.
But he refused to praise the
bridge that carried him over, A few
days ago he was in court as a wit
ness and swore at such rate against
the government that the whole
court became quite disturbed at
his ungrateful heart. Besides swear
ing for the plantiff, Kirk went oul
in the corrider and remarked that
he “didn’t ask thy g—-d-—govern
ment any odds,” that he had a dis
tillety they had never touched and
in various other ways showed that
he regarded the government as 2
Jarge-sized; fraud on wheels. The
court became warméd up and Mr. ‘
Jenking, the assistant distriet at
torney, asked Judge McCay if he
did not think Kirk should be called:
to taw to show cause why he should
not serve out the balance of his |
suspended sentence. The judge
said be thought so, and an crder
was issued accordingly. Four able
aides were dispatched to Haralson
county to gather in the offender.
They surrounded the humble cot
and succeeded in waking the slum
bering Kirk, whe on looking oul
deeided that he had been attacked
by the hots of Xerxes or some other
individual, and immediately rau
up the white flag. The four able
caught the wild moonshier by the
slack-of his mashbesmeard {rows
sne tugeed him Into Tallapoosa,
where they put handcuffs on hin
and guarded him
with jealous carc. But alas! Thal
night at the hotel the sly moonsghi
ner evaded "them and escapod to
the woodg, and the four able came
home empty handed. Kirk left a
note as follows : “Goodbye, and be
hanged to you.” |
